I bought the deal a few months ago because I have numerous home improvement projects that I wanted to get done. I was in touch with Dan over the last few months but the long winter made it difficult to have anything done until recently. I decided to have him work on replacing some damaged siding on my house. He came by and gave me an idea of how much it would cost and what I would need. He asked if I could get the stock that way he could get to work and get as much done with time of the deal that I purchased. I thought that was a good idea to save a little money by picking up the materials myself. He quoted me a price of $200 on top of the deal I had purchased to replace a section of the siding. I picked up the siding, some nails, and some caulk. He came by with a helper and started work last week (3/17). In total he worked 2 days with a helper and one other day the helper came and worked by himself. He also found some rot in the window sill and water basin so replaced those as well. For the three days of work, replacing the siding, sill and basin he ended up charging me $500 on top of the deal purchased (which was for 6 hours worth of labor, or 3 hours 2 guys). Although it was more than I expected, I think it was reasonable for the amount of work that was done. Dan was very easy to work with and seems to be very fair and honest. I would recommend his services and would definitely use him again.

I bought the Angie's list deal and planned to use it sometime in the spring. I got a call from the company's owner, Dan Twiss, inquiring when I'd like to make arrangements to perform the service. This is very unusual for any other purchase of deals on Angie's list. The merchant usually waits for me to call them. In addition to calling the first time, he made a few follow-up calls to ask questions about the details of my requested services Dan and his partner arrived on time and stayed through the completion of my list. They were both very efficient and talented. I love the look of my closet. They were extremely polite and made a point of including me in the details of all work they were performing. I already made plans for them to come back next week for other jobs/tasks needed for my home.
Description of Work: The provider accomplished a fairly large to do list for my home. Some of these included painting, outdoor lighting and a closet, with both poles and custom shelves. All of these tasks were performed with professionalism and efficiency. The workers were polite and non-intrusive to my household.

When I ordered this deal, I was hoping to get some work done at the home. However it was tough to get in touch with the provider, and we were not able to get the work done when needed. I talked with the provider and agreed that the best course of action was to cancel this deal.

The service did not turn out as good as it should have. I don't think I would call them back. Daniel was good, but the helper he came with was not good. I don't think I would let them do anything for me.The guy was nice and everything, and if you are hiring him, stick to carpentry, and small jobs. He showed up on time, and called me on time. Daniel was professional.
Description of Work: We purchased a big deal for Twiss Building Repair & Remodeling. They did a little bit of carpentry. He did an okay job. I shouldn't have asked them to hang a chandelier for me.

Before I purchased the deal I called the provider to ensure that he could what I needed. He agreed and told me to call back after I purchased the deal to set up a time to come look at the jobs. He agreed to come the following evening, and I agreed to call him at a specific time to check his ETA. When I She called he had forgotten about our appointment and said he would be at my house within a half hour. He showed up an hour and a half later, at 9:30 pm, after I called him a few times to find out how much longer he would be. When he came to look at the job, he stated that it might take 3-4 hrs, which seemed excessive, but that we could "work out a deal". He told me that Angies list takes half of the money from the big deal and that he needed to be able to make some money on the work. He told me at a later date that he set up another big deal but that it was for 6 hrs of work because 2 hrs "wasn't worth it". I made numerous calls to him in the interim trying to arrange for the service to be provided before it snowed or got too cold, though at times he took up to a month to return my calls.

I was quite pleased with the service and very grateful that the problem was solved so rapidly. It was freezing cold that night and Dan Twiss never complained about the cold. He really helped me out in an emergency situation.
Description of Work: During the most recent cold spell my main water service pipe from the street into my basement froze and the pipe burst. It was in the midddle of the night and Dan Twiss was the only professional I could reach. I came when he said he would. He repaired the pipe and finished the job in a reasonable amount of time.

Well the traps are set and Dan Twiss will be back soon to remove the traps. I will report how it all goes when I come back to Angie's List to submit my review how it all goes but based on how Dan Twiss works, I expect to be submitting a happy ending with the squirrels safely relocated. In a nutshell Mr Twiss had to be the sheriff and serve eviction notice to the squirrels that took up residence in my attic. Stay tuned.
Description of Work: In this brutally cold winter with all of these snow storms, some squirrels moved into my attic. Because of a recent surgery I was not able to go into my attic myself to set some "Have a Heart" traps. I called Dan Twiss and once again he came right away and set the traps up in my attic with peanut butter. I know squirrels are notorious for lots of damage. So I'm happy that Dan Twiss could come so quickly on a Sunday and solve this problem.

It didn't go. First contact was delayed because he was overwhelmed with responses to the offer. I had urgent need based on the cold weather, so I contacted him again to plead for appointment. He did call then, expressed reluctance to handle my needs, but then agreed to come on a certain date. He was also going to call a few days ahead in order to nail down specific terms--sounded as though he was going to want more money ("cash" in the pocket) but hard to understand because of poor cell phone reception. He never called to clarify, never showed up on the agreed date. I thought I had finished and submitted this review already, and I have made claim to get my $200 back, when I notice he did try to call me, but left no message.

This was a complete nightmare from start to finish! They were very hard to get a hold of. When I finally got in touch with them they were more than 2 hours late! Then they took 5 hours to do a job that shouldn't have taken 3. They never got around to installing the door they agreed to do either. I bought an outlet and wire opening kit for behind the tv. It turned out that it was very difficult to hide the item I bought behind the tv since our mount was very large. So instead of telling me this (I explicitly said I didn't want the outlet showing...obviously!) they hung it up anyway with the outlet complertely visible. The only fix we could do was lower the tv to the farthest setting on the mount and now we can se the top of the mount and will have to cut it. I trust in my contractors to tell me if something I bought is not the best for the job. This would have been a simple fix. Now we have to hack away at our brand new tv mount and we have screws protruding from the wall that are luckily behind the TV and not visible. One of the guy (I believe his name is Dan) was very rude. Lots of mumbling under his breath about Angies list and always getting screwed etc. etc. Very unprofessional. They obviously did not know what they were doing even though they advertise this as one of the handyman services they provide! I was then asked to pay for their extra time even though it took so long and completely screwed up my day (the day before our holiday party no less!) all because of their incompetence. All the while he is complaining to me that these deals through Angies list are horrible for him, he makes no money, they take a fee...blah blah. Not the consumers problem!!
Description of Work: Installed a flat screen tv above the fireplace. Ran a new outlet behind tv and HDMI wires through.

Initially Dan returned my call promptly and set a time. He then called me 15 minutes before he was due to delay his arrival 1 hr. He arrived 1 hr and 15 minutes after that call. He did a nice job in the designated time. We agreed on some additional work for a future date and his price was reasonable. We agreed on a date and time. Unfortunately, he was a no show and no call. Approximately 20 minutes after the scheduled arrival time, I left him a voicemail. He returned my call 1 1/2 hrs after the scheduled time. Although he was apologetic, he said he was "overwhelmed" w/ work, had worked until 10pm the night before, didn't get out of bed until the time he was due to arrive at my home and felt ill. I will not be using his services again.

Response from Twiss Building Repair & Remodeling
[member name removed] I have just read your rating concerning the work I recently did for you. The coupon offering by me and Angie’s list that you responded to got a little overwhelming and I simply fell behind. The response to the offering was more than expected and I found myself working until 9 pm and 10 pm every day, including Sundays just to keep up with the demand. In fact, it ended up affecting my health to the point that on the day in question I was bedridden from exhaustion. This is not intended as an excuse, complaint, or diverting blame to others but rather just a clarification of my situation and behavior as I experienced it. I do take responsibility for not calling you in time and missing the time that was scheduled. I am sorry that I did not keep you informed better than I did. Please forgive me. I am only human and do the best I can to accommodate everyone I work with. My hopes for the program that you were involved in was to expand my client base and develop future work from those involved by providing prompt professional service. The time and energy I devote to this program is substantial, but I feel is well worth the effort to insure the continued growth and future of my company. I have taken steps to insure that this does not happen again. I wish you the best, honestly, and sincerely hope you find someone to accommodate your future needs. I am glad you are satisfied with the work we did complete, fixing what others told you they were unable to do. Thank you for allowing me to serve you. Have a nice day Dan Twiss

Dan & Paul had previously done repairs around the house and was impressed by his responsiveness and quality of work. Subsequently, asked them to help prevent rain water getting into the basement. They stopped by and gave me an estimate. As work progressed, both realized they needed to address other problem spots - window, ground incline, power line inlets etc to prevent all water seepage. They explained to me the details and upon approval did a thorough job. Dan and Paul stood by their work and offered to come in and fix any future seepage for free. We have had a few heavy rains since and no problems thus far. Will be happy to call on them again for other jobs around the house.

Initially, contacted Dan for building repair work - stem rot and repair a small section on the exterior of the house. Dan showed up on time, gave an estimate and actually was a few dollars below the estimate. Did a thorough job. Dan also helped with repair work on the driveway, and main door of the home. Each time finishing the work on time and below/on budget. Subsequently, Dan also helped with bathroom remodeling, painting and kitchen repairs. Thorugh impressed by his professionalism, integrity and responsiveness. Won't hesitate to engage him in future projects big or small.

I called Daniel Twiss because he had come highly recommended by a friend who kept raving to me about the quality and integrity of his work. I was desperate and called him. He came the same day. We went to Home Depot together and he helped me pick out the right hot water heater for my house. He was responsible, respectful and even though it took longer than he thought to do the job he stuck to his quote and charged me what he said he was going to charge me. I was very pleased with the work. As a single woman who owns a multi family home I have needed several repairs on my home and feel I have been taken advantage of and even ripped off by repair and remodeling service men in the past. I am grateful that I found Daniel Twiss I think God sent me and angel. It is with great confidence that I highly recommend Daniel Twiss services.
Description of Work: My hot water heater broke and my basement was flooded with water. Daniel Twiss helped me pick out the right water heater I needed for my house. He took the old water heater out installed the new hot water heater and left the basement spotless. He did what he said he was going to do.
